The summer concert series at Palmetto Bluff is underway again this year and it’s got things rockin’, with music acts performing under the majestic oaks in the Village Green throughout the summer.
The entrance fee of $25 per car benefits Family Promise of Beaufort County, whose mission is to provide temporary shelter, family stability and permanent housing solutions for homeless families with children by mobilizing community resources.
New this year is a tailgate party contest, known as the Cold Beer, Hot Nights Tailgate Competition. Bring your finest picnic regalia to the Village Green starting at 5 p.m. for a chance to win a fully catered private party at the next Summer Concert. Palmetto Bluff officials will pick the best picnic party at each concert by 6 p.m. and announce the winner right before each concert. No parking, grills or tents are allowed.
Food and beverage will be available for purchase (cash sales only). If you’re carrying in your own picnic, bring only hand-held coolers and/or bags. All bags/coolers are subject to inspection.
Gates open at 5 p.m. and the concerts begin at 6:30 p.m.
Upcoming concerts are:
July 12: Colby Deitz Band
July 26: Lowcountry Boil
Aug. 2: The Blue Dogs
Aug. 9: The Accomplices
